Be WiTh Me

Today is my last day at NTP. Ain’t that fast? I just received news on Monday and today, my outlet is being taken over and tomorrow, I’m gonna end up at my worst nightmare place. Lucky thing is I still managed to bide good bye to most of my regulars at NTP. And guess what? I received a ESPN sling bag yesterday from the ESPN director, Mr Tom. He didn’t have time to pass it to me, but got his secretary to send to me. So nice of him. To make my day, Christy and Joanne came down today to pass me a gift he bought while he was away to China for the Olympics. Though he kept forgetting about it, I am still very happy he dropped by today. Its a opera face bottle cape opener. He also wrote me a card. Ha…. In it he says, “Chris, maybe you can make India your next tourist destination (the card has got picture from windows of Mehrangarh Fort, Jodhpur: Rajasthan, India)!! Just a note to say thank you for being so fantastic for the last couple of years and really brightening our days. Love from Christy & Joanne.” Oh…. See the reason why I am so sad to leave NTP? I have so many nice customers there. Simon and Alistar also gave me a surprise praising in front of Esther while we were in the middle of some discussion. Ha…. Although they didn’t manage to change the fact that I had to go, but I am really very happy that I have so many nice friends there. Yup, they are more like friends to me rather than customers. Hmmm…. I’m gonna miss them. Hope they will come by P.S more often to visit me.

Moo Moo is back at my house once again cos she kept crying, doesn’t wanna eat nor pee. Left with no choice, I had to bring her back home. Once she is home, she went to the cat litter straight away to do her business. This proves that she really misses home. But on the other hand, Rooney seems not to recognize her cos he kept hissing at her. Oh come on Rooney…. Its only a few days and you have forgotten about Moo Moo?? Don’t be a heartless jerk k. I’m gonna smack you!

Received news today that I’m gonna be posted out of my current work place to another. This will be my last week at my current work place. Still dunno where I will be heading to but I am definately sad to leave my comfort zone. Four days to go before the work week ends. Gonna use these four days to bide all my nice customer bye bye…. Boring….

My mum called me early in the morning telling me that Moo Moo is not coping well at her new home. She has been eating and cried none stop for the past 2 days. Guess she misses Da Mao and Rooney….  It just breaks my heart that  she had to go through this all by herself . Plan to visit her these few days. If she still shows no improvement, I have to bring her back. *sigh*

2 months of bond is neither long nor short but a special feeling is definately there. Yup, the 3 cats whom used to have a home of their own were being forced to be separated (all thanks to their owner who is not ME!). Today, I found a new home for one of the cats, Moo Moo. She is a very tamed female cat that has got black patches on its white fur. Well, actually her new owner is my mum’s malay colleague. Even though its sad that I had to separate Moo Moo from the other 2, I still feels happy that she had a new home rather than to be cooped up in that tiny balcony of mine where she squeeze, eat, sleep and shit. That is very unhealthy cos of the odour from the shit…. I was pretty worried that all of them would fall sick even though I cleared up the mess every day. Getting Moo Moo to her new place was very distress for me & my Bro, especially my Bro cos he likes Moo Moo very much. However, we were glad to see that Moo Moo’s new family members dote her very much. Hope Moo Moo will be happy at her new home though she is on her own now. Miss you Moo Moo.

To all people out there,

If you are unable to provide your pets with a stable home, please do not keep any. Nothing is for sure so don’t take things for granted. Only keep a pet if you are 100% that you won’t abandon them no matter what happen. It is very distress for your pets when you gave them up. They may not be respondent to whatever you say, but they do feel hurt when you gave them up. Because they can’t choose, they are always at a losing end. Just like a kid, they are a life time commitment. So please, spare a thought for them cos they have feelings too.

It has been a long time since I last wrote on this column. Today I brought with me a heavy heart to this blog. A lot has happened lately, with the least happy weighing the most…. In another two days’ time, things will be changed and I will not know what’s gonna be installed for me in the future. Should I pray for the better or should I bow to fate? Answer: Unknown….

Being born on April’s Fool day isn’t something very happy for me cos I always find myself being a fool…. Something unpleasant happened and it came as a triple blow. People keep telling me that I have been too nice. When you are bad towards others, people talks behind your back. But when you are nice, people still talks. Find you a pest, took you for granted, get angry at you for your ‘over concern’, only sees the negative part of you regardless of how much effort you had put in to keep the bond …. The next thing you know, everything just goes wrong…. To make things worse for you, your parents kept fighting. You feel hurt outside hoping to find a place to heal yourself at home yet peace chose to give you up. In despair, you still tried very hard again to be nice and talk things out but all you ever get was being reprimanded for being a KPO….. No solutions to everything and your life just get messed up further. It got so bad that you fall into depression, tear yourself to sleep and unwillingly affect your brain function. Does anyone knows what I am going through? Absolutely not. Instead, some makes you feel worse…. I don’t ask much. Yet I ended up losing out….

A group of us were out to the gay night party at PLAY on Saturday night (16.02.08) after our last party at Happy last year. Noor, Megha, Eunice, Melvin, Marshal, Maomao and me met up at Tanjong Pagar MRT at 10pm while Rae joined us an hour later. Initially, we started out with some entry house pour and beer. When 11pm struck, I went over to the bar to get a jug of Vodka fruit-punch. Its one-for-one from 11-12am hence I got ourselves 2 jugs. In order to start the real drinking session rolling, me, Meg, Marshal and Eunice started playing 5-10.

Just when our drinks were almost gone, Rae came along with a total of 4 jugs of Vodka with orange and cranberry juice. The night was only 1 plus and our drinks were going down fast. Then, Marshal suggested to open a bottle of Vodka with Rae second for it. Hence I went over to the bar counter with Rae to make the order from Joan. With Joan around, I managed to get ourselves 3 mixer. One fruit-punch and two cranberries.

As usual, Rae became the first ‘victim’ we attacked. After a few rounds, I kept running to the restroom to pee. The last time I went and rejoined the rest, I was so surprise to see Rae drunk! Oh my god…. She was totally gone…. The state she was in was so much worse then the last time she got drunk at Devils Bar. The rest were still quite sober except for Marshal who was half gone and still trying to pour the Vodka down his throat. All of us stopped him and I brought the unfinished Vodka to the bar counter. When I returned, Rae had already puke all over the floor with her head on the table. Even her shoes were gone…. My dear Rae was so out of image that night. We tried to move her but she just wouldn’t allow. All she wanted to do was to lie down.

I was shocked to see her half naked when she finally sat up. Opps…. Did I mention half naked?!! Her bra n her tube dress had slide down! My immediate reaction was to pull it up for her cos I was just standing in front of her. I’m not sure who else saw but Noor and Maomao definitely saw…. Then, she lie down behind Maomao on the couch. Just when I was telling Maomao that I think Rae is gonna puke again, Maomao touched her own butt and said,"She has already puked on my ass…." Ha…. That was so funny. Rae refused to stand up and walked and so I Mel, Noor, Meg and Eunice to lift her out of PLAY while Maomao got Marshal out. As for me, I was graping as much of serviettes as I could from the bar counter. Joan was concerned and followed us out. 

Right outside "Ah Kun" coffee shop, Rae yelled at us to let go of her and that she wanted to lie down. We tried not to cos the floor is dirty but had to let go when she yelled again. The moment she lie down, she puked again. This time round, her shoulder, face, hair and dress were all stained. I had to keep wiping her till we ran out of serviettes and I had to asked Noor to get more. She really messed herself up. To avoid her from rubbing her face against the floor, I had to lift her head up and let  her rest on my lap. It was then that I realized she had a cut on her forehead with a little bum. She must had got it when she put her head down on the table. Well, what follows was another round of puking and this time round on me . Luckily I’m not those who cannot stand seeing others puke.

After some pacifying, we managed to get Rae onto the cab. Noor took the front seat while I sat behind with Rae to take care of her. The journey home was tough for Rae. All the jerking caused her to  throw up more. Luckily Noor  had a little plastic bag standby for her, else the cabby uncle is gonna curse and swear at us…. =P

Back at my block, she wanted to lie down on the pavement yet again. It was then that 3 passer-by stopped to help us carry her to the bus-stop. We have even alerted a police car that was on patrol and 2 officers came to ask if Rae is ok. Ha…. Rae ah Rae…. Before me and Noor could carry Rae up to my house, she was shivering away. Hence, I ran up to get my jacket down to put it onto her for fear she would catch a cold. Me and Noor  really had a hard time getting Rae up to my place. Both of us were panting for breath when we finally got her to my place. All the puking didn’t end till it was almost 7am. By then, Noor was already asleep while Rae had already soiled my bed. As for me, I was busying cleaning her and my room before I finally put my head down to sleep at 7.15am.

It was only last Tuesday (05.02.08) that  me, Rae and Justin  got together again to wash  our bikes. But today, Justin told me that her Banana (Super 4) has been stolen last night in JB!!! Initially, I thought she was just joking. Well, she isn’t…. To make things worse, she lost her passport too. Poor her and her Banana…. To all my friends out there, please be extra careful when you go into Malaysia with your vehicles, be it whether you are driving or riding. Once lost, its difficult to retrieve your vehicle back….

Tomorrow, which is 18.01.08, marks a year of my bike’s probation period. Woh…. Time really flies…. Without knowing and a year has come. I can finally tear off the striking "P" plate from my Xiao Hei. Yippee…. In fact, I already had it torn off today! Ha ha…. Must be wondering if I am gonna upgrade to Class 2A right? Well…. Maybe. But I guess it won’t be so soon.
